You can sell your property at any time, there is no limit :D

I assume you mean in regard to capital gains tax exemption, as far as I recall it changed from 4 years to 5 years for properties purchased after 1st January 2007. That is 5 years from the day your tapu was transferred into your name, NOT 5 years from the day you signed a contract to buy the property.
